...I’m not sure that might be derailing the thread...

[The Slim Reaper]

They wanted to vandalise it at 1pm, but the trains didn't arrive on time.

[The Slim Reaper]

It's good to have a hobby, and these vandals have finally found their station in life.

[Ammi]

...that type of tardiness shouldn’t be given a platform tbh...

[Saph]

its so easy to get donations nowadays.. some girl from my town set up a gofundme for her wedding and got £10,000!

might just trash my own house and set one up..

[The Slim Reaper]

Looking forward to Ringo narrating the CCTV footage.

[Ammi]

...:laugh:..it’s devastating for them though really, poor people...those things that they treasure so much and without reason, someone just destroys them...

[Crimson Dynamo]

If it wasn't vandals

Could be a sleeper cell?

:suspect:

[The Slim Reaper]

Probably just some exuberant youths that got carriaged away.

[Crimson Dynamo]

What possible locomotive could one have for this senseless crime?

...just because it was in a school gym doesn’t mean it was youths who targeted it, Arista...do we know it was youths..?...

In a statement, it said: "About 0350 today (Saturday) we were alerted by a local resident that noises had been heard coming from Queen Eleanor School in Stamford and a short time later whilst we were on our way to the call, the alarm at the school activated.

"On arrival at the school we arrested four youths, who were on the premises, for burglary and criminal damage and they are in custody at Grantham.

Some works took 20 years to set up a model
this why Youths do not need to vote

[Ammi]

...The vote of young people should be taken away because a crime has been committed ..?...

If you can't set up a model in only 19 years, you deserve to have it trashed.
